The Movado 405 watch movement, introduced in 1972, features an indirectly driven minute hand, enabling a large balance and low profile design. It incorporates a barrel with jewel bearings, ensuring smooth and reliable function. This movement can be optionally equipped with raised hands and a spacer, allowing for compatibility with the Forster 422 and casing compatible with ETA 2670. Notable functions of the Movado 405 include automatic winding, sweep seconds, Incabloc Shock Protection, and sweep seconds. The Movado 405 movement has been implemented in watches since 1972.
